Photographer's Note

the aftermath of three events that happened all at once. First the biggest storm surge in the north sea for years, second one of the biggest tides of the year, and third storm force 10 northerly gales, it left the town centre with the worst flooding for 60years, homes and busisness flooded and power loss to the centre, three days later and some power not restored. I decided to de-saturate the shot to show the black day for the town but left the Christmas lights in colour to show that the town will bounce back. The water rose another 0.75meter after I took this shhot.
